Medicare Open Enrollment ends next week on December 7. If you’ve been thinking about changing your Medicare coverage, now is the time to act. You may already know you have choices in how you get Medicare hospital, medical, and prescription drug coverage, but did you know you can get help online? By answering just a few questions about your health care needs, you can see what Medicare choices might be best for you. Then use the Medicare Plan Finder to see the plan options in your area and decide the best mix of beneﬁts and costs that meet your needs and budget.

In these last few days of Medicare Open Enrollment, take a minute to review your options. If you like your current health care coverage and it’s still available for 2018, you don’t need to do anything. But if you’re thinking about making any changes, now’s the time to act.
